Transform SAP landscapes after business change

In business, change is inevitable, but recent years have brought even more changes than could have been imagined.
M
any businesses have adapted to employees working remotely, and are adjusting to other business changes.

 

Business changes such as mergers, acquisitions, regional to global transitions and subsidiary sales can affect your entire SAP production landscape. These events are complex, critical and time-sensitive; your data may need to be merged, carved out or split up. We offer powerful solutions and proven methodologies. We specialise in extracting the right data and migrating it rapidly, to enable the transformation of your SAP Landscape.

 

Our System Landscape Optimization (SLO) team, using a specially enabled version of the Data Sync Manager (DSM) product suite, implements these changes drawing on a 'bank' of expertise and intellectual capital. Our experienced consultants will oversee the technical phases of the project, dealing with all the inherent complexities. And our technology-driven approach can significantly reduce the end-to-end project duration.
